Setup: Laptop connected to our network via public WiFi over a VPN encrypted connection.

Trying to map a network drive so laptop user can save files to the server.

This worked one time:
net use k: \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\transfer /u:
Prompted me for my username and password and mapped the drive

Subsequent attempts after rebooting yields a System error 53 network path was not found.

If I do the same command less the /u: parameter it maps the drive just fine but of course I cant get into the drive because of permission issues.

The username on the laptop is not the same as what the user would use if they were on site and actually logging into our network thus the reason for the /u switch.

Hello,

SonicWALL NSA routers

I have a network with 10 site to site vpn's. We switched providers on two of our sites. The buildings are on the same street and I got these IP's

Site A -   X.X.49.53
Site B -  X.X.49.52

I was able to recreate all of the tunnels with the exception of Site A to Site B. I'm wondering if it has to do with the fact that they are on the same .49 network. Any idea if this is the case?

Thanks in advanced

We were issued a new modem by our ISP = ARRIS NVG443B.  Since then our remote office could not VPN into us.  I thought maybe our static IP had changed and ISP failed to tell us.  They say not - that our static IP is still the same.  I logged into new router and saw WAN IP as one number and what was our old IP down on the DHCP/LAN page listed as PRIVATE.  If we use the WAN IP in the VPN connect, it works and we get fully connected.  If we use our old static IP it always fails.  The ISP says that every time we VPN in using the WAN IP, it disconnects wireless service at the site.  That we should not be using the WAN IP....  I'm at a loss.  Anyone know how to properly configure the modem for VPN access?  Thanks in advance.

Hello:

i would like to export the settings from the Cisco RV120W firewall and then import them into a new Cisco RV130W Wireless-N Multifunction VPN Router.

Can this be done  and if so, can someone forward any instructions or links.

Thanks

Hello,

I would like to setup a VPN connection from home office to our office and I'm new to networking.

What are network  hardware/software  I needed?

From home-   Need VPN client

From  Office - Router to terminate
                         VPN server software ?

I have an Advanced Tomato Router with 2 WAN connections.
I want both WAN connections to be active, but only 1 of them to use the VPN (in and out).
Currently it seems to be a bit random as to which WAN the VPN connects through....

I assume it requires some custom IP stable scripts, but im not sure what to use....

Any advise would be great!

Thanks

Dear Experts,

I have a user which started to have an issue with opening ppt files this week over vpn.
The strange thing is it's only happening with ppt files, pptx are opening fine.
If I copy the ppt file from the Shared drive to the desktop it takes 3-4 Seconds to copy and around 10 seconds to open.
If I open the same ppt file directly from a network share it takes around 3-4 Minutes to open or Powerpoint is even crashing.
The same files are opening fast when on the Office network.
I'm running out of ideas what could be the issue.
I tried the following until now:

- repair office
- Adjust MTU of the Wifi adapter
- start Powerpoint in safe mode
- disable all Add-ins
- Add network share in the trust center to trusted locations (including subfolders)

It's still the same after all this.

the following is used:
- Windows 7 64 Bit
- Office 2013
- Cisco Anyconnect

Best Regards and many thanks in advance for any input,

Patrick

Looking the best option for a VPN for the Internet that will also allow Kodi to run ?

So I've been tasked with creating an IPSec VPN using a Cisco RV325. I've followed through several guides to get this setup and as it currently stands, I've managed to create the tunnel, connect and authenticate to the VPN successfully using the Shrewsoft VPN Client. However, once connected with either the IPSec VPN or the EasyVPN, I am able to ping the internal address of the router, but unable to ping any other device on the remote LAN. I've made sure firewalls are turned off for testing purposes just to ensure the packets aren't being blocked. I've also tried RDP connections to devices with no joy.

Interestingly, when I tried using the PPTP VPN through the RV325 (using windows 'connect to a network') I'm able to ping everything and remote access servers etc.

I've noticed that the RV325 will give you a virtual IP address range (which the VPN client is picking up) although it seems like there's no kind of address translation or routing to the subnet I need to get to. My remote LAN uses 172.16.8.x/24, the virtual addresses use 172.16.9.x/24.

Please let me know if any log files, config files or screenshots of anything would be of any troubleshooting help and I'll get them posted. Any ideas welcome!

Many thanks in advanced,
Luke

We would like to set up a WSUS server in our DMZ (Internet Facing) for our external users to get MS updates.  I believe for licensing (EULA) requirements the users would have to vpn into the network to get the approved updates.
This would be managed separately from our internal WSUS server, so we don't need to 'downstream' updates from the DMZ  WSUS server to our internal WSUS server.
Server:  Windows 2016 Std, WSUS v 10.
Any suggested links, information, certificate requirements, etc., would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

I have several Cisco 881 deployed in the field for VPN connectivity back to my main office.   When the ASA at the main office gets rebooted during routine maintenance, the Cisco 881 always have to be rebooted before they will re-establish a VPN connection.   Is there anything I can put in the config, that would allow the Cisco 881's to auto reconnect after the ASA has been rebooted?   Below is a copy of one of the configs.  Thanks in advance.
